 %CLARITY REGARDING STRANGE WORD COMBINATIONS ALIEN 080703
%INAPPROPRIATE NOT HELPFUL MISLEADING CONTRADICTORY 080703
 %INCONGRUOUS CONFUSING MISLEADING ALIENATIVE GOODS 080703

There  are many ways in which some  Word-Combinations  are
inappropriate,    not-helpful,   misleading,   etc.    The
following suggests some of those ways:

1.   CONTRADICTORY:   Dry-Water,  White-Black,  Good-Evil,
Unilateral-Cooperation, Humble-Arrogance, etc.

2.  INCONGRUOUS:  Dry-Mist, White-Blue,  Kind-Evil,  Kind-
Bully, Cooperative-Bully, etc.

3.  CONFUSING:   Evil-People,  Evil-Ideals,   Evil-Places,
Evil-Times,   Unilateral-Success,    Unilateral-Salvation,
Unilateral-Redemption, etc.

4.  MISLEADING:  Just-War,  Good-Violence, Good-Domination,
White-Lie, Successful-Domination, etc.

It  seems  impossible to offer truly  Clear-Cut  Mutually-
Exclusive  characterizations of strange word-combinations.
Yet some characterizations  can  still helpfully point  to
why  the  strange word-combinations are  "strange",  "not-
helpful",    "regrettable"   and  often  referred  to   as
"oxymorons".

To MITIGATE alienations,  misunderstandings,   confusions,
animosity,  evil-relationships, disintegrations, etc.  ---
we need  to graciously/helpfully point out occasions where
there are strange  word-combinations  that are  augmenting
our:  alienations,  misunderstandings,  confusions, anger,
animosities, evil-relationships and disintegrations.
